Who

Driesenaar is the freelance company of Désirée Driesenaar.

For 25+ years I worked in business management as a commercial manager, business unit manager, international B2B marketing manager or consultant. In 2014 I decided that the time had come to combine my business experience with a strong drive towards a regenerative, inclusive, purposeful future. I became an entrepreneur for sustainability. Apart from my regular business and communication studies, I participated in training programs from Blue Economy and The Natural Step

My passion

Humans are part of nature, everything is connected. That is my main learning when I started my personal search for purpose and sustainability. I developed a worldview of systems thinking, ecology. And my life has changed because of it. I strongly believe that we should restore ecosystems, reconnect to nature and learn together how to live as part of nature. Different business models and innovations can play an important part in this, as well as human connection and heightened awareness to make the right choices. So that’s what my projects are about. I participate in projects to make people and planet thrive and communicate about them to create awareness. It is like a dance in which we find our steps, looking at what has real value.
